"Something Good Can Work" is the first single by the Irish rock band Two Door Cinema Club. The single was first released for promotion, but was released again on 7 April 2009[1] after signing with Kitsuné Music.[2] The music video, which was filmed in Gran Canaria (Canary Islands), has amassed over fourteen million views on YouTube.[3]
